I may be speaking only for myself here, but I've always thought that the essence of the moderate view - and I do think of myself as a moderate - is that valid points are found on both sides of the political equation (though often well concealed in a welter of ideological spew), and that good policy is not likely to stem from one side or the other, but from a dynamic balance between the two. I suppose this would seem wishy-washy to an ideologue of either side.

Normally I would be looking to the Republicans about now, not because of the virtues of their candidates but because 8 years of one party is enough. Their foreign policy team seems more than a bit suspect to me, though: I would hate to see the move toward multilateralism that has dominated foreign relations over the last 12 years stalled or reversed.

I am not happy at all that both parties have chosen to put select candidates from the ranks of the career-political elite, and I wouldn't trust either of them for a minute.
